Hello Kevin, First of all nice job on creating this art.

Here is my situation:

When I run the single "Logical Disk Defragmentation Task" from within the SCOM console, the task status shows "Successfully completed" but when I logon to the server where the task was suppose to run, I am seeing the following error message under the OpsMgr Event log (see below). (I underestand the task status within SCOM only means that SCOM was able to execute the "Microsoft.Windows.Server.LogicalDisk.Defrag.vbs" command and doesn't mean that it actually defragmented the drive). Any idea why the script is failing??

Event Type: Error

Event Source: Health Service Script

Event Category: None

Event ID: 4001

Date: 9/22/2010

Time: 1:49:22 PM

User: N/A

Computer: WINDOWS_2003_SERVER

Description:

Microsoft.Windows.Server.LogicalDisk.Defrag.vbs : Defrag failed (disk: C:; computer: Windowsserver.domain.com). Return code: 8..

Kevin,

My 2nd question - I do have the 'fragmentation monitor Recovery Task" enabled as I like SCOM to just auto run this every this monitor changes state. Now my question is, where can I go and see if this task for kicked-in and on how many servers it ran the recovery? Is there a view/report/dashboad out of the box or is there a way I can create something report/view/dashboard to check up on this recovery task?

Thanks

MA

Kevin,

Here is another thing I found about this server where my defrag task is erroring-out  - Under "C:\Program Files\System Center Operations Manager 2007\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files 16" when I search for the "Microsoft.Windows.Server.LogicalDisk.Defrag.vbs " script it's not there. I do see bunch of other .vbs scripts including the (Microsoft.Windows.Server.LogicalDisk.DefragAnalysis.vbs) but not the "Defrag.vbs" does that give of any indications why my defrag task isn't doing it's job?

Thanks

MA
